doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> <month year> doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> Encoding Scheme The entire packet is repeated n times, with each packet following 0.815ms after the end of the previous packet The PHY Header contains a 3 bit subsequence count, which indicates the number of packets to follow in the burst sequence. A non encoded packet uses the value 0. Each packet contains the same data payload and sequence count from the MAC Only packets with a subsequence count of 0 can append an LEI <author>, <company>

doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> <month year> doc.: IEEE 802.15-<doc#> Example For triple voting Subsequence count (SSC) starts at 2 Packet 1 contains SSC 2, sequence count xxxx Packet 2 contains SSC 1, sequence count xxxx Packet 3 contains SSC 0, sequence count xxxx, and may append an LEI The demodulation engine aggregates packets with the same sequence count The location engine aggregates packets with same sequence and subsequence counts <author>, <company>
